She said her mom asked the same thing, and they both sounded a little confused as to why we wouldn't both be there. Do they forget she has parents?

Anyway, I'm wondering how others handle it. Do you each go your seperate way's and meet back up at night, or do you spend a few hours at both dinners? We are just going our seperate way's on this one. Niether of us feel like dealing with the stress of being one place and trying to get to the next an hour 15 mins away. It works out better that way. This way we both get to spend times with our families without feeling rushed. I hate holiday's.
My boyfriend and I do not have enough money to celebrate the holidays. So we just aren't going to..which is okay because neither of our families are super uptight about holidays.
It is kind of lame though because I would love to invite his family over for thanksgiving but his family is all SOBER now because of past substance problems..and my family is full of alcoholics.

So pretty much we will never have a Holiday together.
Oh well though, I still love them all!
